The things we put ourselves through for the sake of a good time… #RailReplacement 🙃

For day 6 of Week-Long Engineering Works, it was all about the buses.

We also went back down to Syward Crossing to see the current progress, with the new rails now in place.

A hire bike stand in a Leeds street. One beryl bike stands parked badged up for the sponsor LNER - London North Eastern Railway.

There's a lot of rail replacement across Yorkshire today but - LNER - this seems to be taking it a bit far. I mean I don't mind the odd mile or two but Darlington?.... #railways #railreplacement #bike #Leeds

Todays #railReplacement / #bussForTog was unusual:

Today’s #railReplacement bus driver:

(in a northern Norwegian accent)

Before we set off, I must ask you all to fasten your seatbelts. Not only is it the law, but I’m not exactly the best driver either.

Half the bus burst out laughing 😂

Rail replacement drivers between #Derby and #Nottingham doing a great job, cheerful despite repeatedly giving out the same instructions to confused passengers with patience. #EMR staff nowhere to be seen. Driver actually said "..then I have to go to somewhere called Loughborough"... #RailReplacement

#TheTraitors time. So it opens with the train... #RailReplacement

Local newspaper article about buses replacing trains on the Far North Line. Picture of a train at a snowy platform.

Life imitates art on reality show #traitors

Today a real life #railreplacement service ran past the Traitors' castle at Ardross!

I’m already excited at the prospect of the ex British diplomat who successfully negotiated himself off the train coming back next week.
Have a feeling he’s going to be wonderfully awful TV.
